If the wings "I" struts are hollow, made of fiberglass and painted, it's a re-covered Great Planes 1/3 Pitts. If they are not, the plane was not an ARF that I can recall. The cowl doesn't look right for even the Great Planes product, tho.

How about a plans built Starduster. No ones make a kit or an ARf of the Starduster. I had one that was given to me and this one looks extremely close to it.

NO forget it. The aluminum cabanes look prefab. As I mentioned before it is a beauty though

the super stincker has different wing tips and the cowl is different as well. It might be an old pilot kit

How old is the plane??
If it's relativly new, it's a TMpro Pitts. www.topmodelproduction.com
